The 50th International Paris Air Show at Le Bourget, which will be held on June 17-23, will feature 27 national pavilions and at least 110 aircraft. Russia’s Su-35 fighter jet will be making its world premiere at the show.

"The UAC will
present two combat aircraft in Paris: the Yak-130, produced by the Irkut
corporation, and Sukhoi's Su-35. This will be the Su-35's first public
appearance abroad," said the official spokesperson for the United Aircraft
Corporation (UAC), Boris Krylov. He added that the aircraft would take part in
the show's flight displays too.

The advanced,
fourth-generation, air-superiority, Su-35 fighter jet has been designed by the
Sukhoi design bureau. Under a 2009 contract, the Russian Defense Ministry
commissioned 48 Su-35C (the series name) aircraft from Sukhoi, which are
supposed to enter service by 2015. The number of the aircraft is expected to
double later. At the moment, the Defense Ministry has at least 11 Su-35
aircraft worth $85 million, including three test aircraft. Sukhoi is expected
to deliver 12 more aircraft by the end of 2013.

The first foreign
country to buy the new Russian aircraft is likely to be China. As reported by
Russian media earlier, the two sides are discussing a contract for 24 Russian
fighter jets to be supplied to China.

During tests in
late 2012, the Su-35 demonstrated a speed of 1,553 mph and a service ceiling of
11.8 miles. The aircraft has a range is 2,112 miles and a combat radius of 995
miles.

The Su-35 has a 30mm gun and 12 wing and fuselage stations with a
capacity of 17,636 pounds of ordnance. It is capable of detecting air targets
at a distance of over 250 miles.

According to
Sukhoi's corporate brochure, the aircraft's distinguishing features include:
improved avionics based on a digital fly-by-wire system; a new, phased-array
radar capable of detecting airborne targets at a large distance; and more
powerful and thrust-vectoring engines.

As Paris
Air Show chairman Emeric D’Arcimoles said, visitors to the show will
once again be able to see an example of Russian-French cooperation in the
Russian Sukhoi Superjet 100 civilian aircraft, which has been presented at Le
Bourget previously.

"The flight
displays will involve the participation of a Ka-52 ('Alligator') gunship, while
the Le Bourget static display will feature a Ka-100 helicopter and a model of
the MS-21 aircraft," Gilles Fournier, managing director of the air show,
told journalists.

The space section
of the show will feature a new-generation control system for a future launch
vehicle based on the Angara rocket, designed by the N.A. Pilyugin
Scientific-Production Center of Automatics and Instrument-Making.

Famous Russian
aerobatic display teams – Russkiye Vityazi and Strizhi – are expected to
perform at the Le Bourget show.
